- Technical detection and prioritization of findings
- Included re-testing support to verify mitigations
The digital security challenge: Protect assets without slowing down your business
Applications, APIs, and cloud platforms evolve constantly. This exposes organizations to misconfigurations, data leaks, and logical weaknesses. Security Testing and Pentesting provide a technical evaluation to identify vulnerabilities and strengthen security controls before a launch or audit.
Risk of incidents due to critical code vulnerabilities
Lack of visibility over authentication flaws or business logic issues
APIs exposed without proper authorization controls
Cloud environments with insecure or public configurations
Need to meet audits or corporate client requirements
Difficulty prioritizing which vulnerabilities to fix first
Lack of security specialists integrated into the QA lifecycle
Technical evaluation and controlled security simulations
We help organizations diagnose their software security posture through structured testing and limited-scope attack simulations, providing actionable reports to facilitate technical remediation.
Controlled simulations
We perform tests under an agreed scope and test infrastructure previously aligned with the client.
OWASP approach
We validate vulnerabilities using recognized methodologies for web applications, APIs, and mobile apps.
Prioritization of findings
We classify risks based on impact and likelihood so your team fixes the most critical flaws first.
Developer support
We explain findings with clear evidence and technical recommendations to facilitate remediation.
Types of tests you can request
Web Pentesting
Simulated attacks on web applications to uncover business logic flaws, injections, and data exposure.
Examples:
API Pentesting
Detailed evaluation of REST, GraphQL, or SOAP endpoints and parameters to identify authorization and information leakage issues.
Examples:
Mobile Pentesting
Static and dynamic analysis of iOS and Android packages to detect insecure storage, communication flaws, and vulnerable local logic.
Examples:
Cloud Security Testing
Review of security posture and resource configuration in AWS, Azure, or GCP environments to mitigate unauthorized access.
Examples:
OWASP Testing
Structured security controls validation aligned with OWASP Top 10 guidelines to mitigate the most common industry risks.
Examples:
Authentication & Authorization Review
Rigorous evaluation of login mechanisms, JWT tokens, sessions, and role-based access control to prevent privilege escalation.
Examples:
Critical Flow Review
Focused analysis on sensitive business processes where a logic flaw can result in financial loss or data manipulation.
Examples:
Vulnerability Re-testing
Validation and timely tracking of reported findings to certify that remediation applied by development is effective.
Examples:
Security Testing vs Pentesting
| Feature | Security Testing | Pentesting |
|---|---|---|
| Main Focus | Broad identification of vulnerabilities and configuration reviews | Controlled attack simulation approach within an agreed scope |
| Exploitation depth | Less exploitation; focuses on listing and mapping technical risks | Higher exploitation; aims to confirm if a critical bug is exploitable |
| Typical scope | Whole systems, security policies, and network components | Specific application, API, or environment agreed beforehand |
| Recommended frequency | Continuous and integrated into the development cycle (DevSecOps) | Periodic assessments (e.g., annual, semi-annual, or pre-release) |
| Key deliverables | Vulnerability catalog, configuration audits, and guidelines | Proof-of-concept of simulated attacks and tactical mitigation plan |
If you're not sure which model or scope you need, we can help you structure the best assessment for your systems.
Our Pentesting and Security Testing Process
Planning & Scope
We define test boundaries, credentials, environments, and rules of engagement together with the client.
Information Gathering
Search for exposed ports, technologies, architectures, and software versions to evaluate.
Vulnerability Analysis
Identification of logical flaws, weak configurations, insecure components, and code injections.
Controlled Simulation
Controlled attempt to exploit critical vulnerabilities to confirm their real impact on the business.
Report Drafting
We deliver an executive report and a detailed technical report with evidence and clear mitigation steps.
Mitigation Re-test
We validate that corrections implemented by the development team have successfully resolved the issue.
When should you perform a security assessment?
- Before launching a new application or major update to production
- To satisfy security requirements demanded by corporate clients
- When handling transactional, financial, or sensitive personal data
- To evaluate the security configuration of your cloud-exposed services
- If you want to proactively identify security gaps in your platform
- As part of your annual or semi-annual quality assurance cycles
- After making structural network changes, API integrations, or database updates
- To train your technical teams on real-world flaws they should prevent
